Phase 20 — Validation Strategy

Per-phase validation contract for feedback sampling during execution.

---

Test Infrastructure

Property	Value
Framework	bun test
Config file	none — built-in to Bun
Quick run command	bun test
Full suite command	bun test
Estimated runtime	~10 seconds (service tests only, no E2E)

---

Sampling Rate

• After every task commit: Run bun test
• After every plan wave: Run bun test
• Before /gsd:verify-work: Full suite must be green
• Max feedback latency: 10 seconds

Per-Task Verification Map

Task ID	Plan	Wave	Requirement	Test Type	Automated Command	File Exists	Status
TBD	TBD	TBD	CATFLOW-01	grep/visual	grep -r "fabMenuOpen" src/client/	❌ W0	⬜ pending
TBD	TBD	TBD	CATFLOW-02	grep/visual	grep -r "catalogSearchOpen" src/client/	❌ W0	⬜ pending

Status: ⬜ pending · ✅ green · ❌ red · ⚠️ flaky

Wave 0 Requirements

Frontend phase — primary verification is visual + grep-based. No new test files needed for UI components (existing test infrastructure covers service layer).

---

Manual-Only Verifications

Behavior	Requirement	Why Manual	Test Instructions
FAB mini menu opens/closes with animation	CATFLOW-01	Visual/animation behavior	Click FAB, verify menu fans out, click backdrop to close
Full-screen search overlay opens from FAB menu	CATFLOW-02	Visual overlay behavior	Click "Add to Collection" in FAB menu, verify overlay appears
Tag chips filter search results	CATFLOW-02	UI interaction	Type query, tap tag chips, verify results filter
Search results display with correct data	CATFLOW-02	Visual data display	Search for known item, verify card shows name/weight/price

---

Validation Sign-Off

• All tasks have <automated> verify or Wave 0 dependencies
• Sampling continuity: no 3 consecutive tasks without automated verify
• Wave 0 covers all MISSING references
• No watch-mode flags
• Feedback latency < 10s
• nyquist_compliant: true set in frontmatter

Approval: pending
